The Society for Endocrinology has unveiled its new online archive charting the history of endocrinology over the past 70 years. The archive, which comprises a collection of material published from 1939 to late 1997, will be available from January 2009. It is hosted by online services provider HighWire Press.
The archive contains more than 10,726 articles and 93,000 pages. It includes papers from the Journal of Endocrinology from Volume 1 in 1939 to September 1997, from Journal of Molecular Endocrinology from Volume 1 in 1988 to August 1997, and from Endocrine-Related Cancer, the latest journal, from 1994 to 1997. All the papers published from 1997 up to 12 months before the current issues will continue to be available for free to all users.
As a non-profit organisation, the Society for Endocrinology is dedicated to the advancement of scientific and clinical education and research in endocrinology. The new archive is projected to provide the endocrine community with a valuable source of key papers. Key papers within the archive will be available online for free from October 2008 until January 2009.
